Evolve your Networking experience with the Windows 2016 server edition.

Robust Infrastructure: Microsoft Windows 2016 server is designed to give cloud like efficiencies with its advanced software defined network, storage and computing features that can help defeat most operational and security challenges faced by modern network designs.

Hyper-V: With the enterprise-class Hyper-V on board, you can be confident since this is the same hypervisor that Microsoft used to run its data-centers around the globe. Also comes with an ability to share workloads from on-site to a Windows server Virtual Machine in Azure.

Mixed cluster upgrades: Get ZERO downtime for both Hyper-V and Scale-out-file server workloads without requiring new hardware.

Multi OS support: With Best in class support for Linux on Hyper-V, you can now deploy applications on multiple operating systems.

Remote management with Azure: New Azure based GUI for controlling windows servers from anywhere.

OS level security: Microsoft windows Server 2016 is designed with built in breach resistance and multiple layers of environment based security measures which not only protects your precious data but also helps detect suspicious activity.
